The First Escape - The Dopple Ganger Chronicles

Isambard Dunstan's School for Wayward Children is a place that is filled to the brim with orphaned children. Sadie and Saskia Dopple are identical twins in every single way except for the colors of their eyes. They have even been known to sense one another's thoughts and know when the other is in danger.

When Muzz Elliot, a wealthy woman shows up one night in search of an heir to adopt, she takes Saskia and leaves Sadie behind. How will they be able to cope being apart for the first times in their life? The only hope remaining for Sadie is her friend, a boy named Erik Morrissey Ganger. He was left behind one night when his their/father abandoned him on the steps. He never came back. He is the only boy in the home but likes earning an honest living even if it's one cooking and cleaning. At least he isn't stealing.

Meanwhile Saskia learns the secret of her adoption to Muzz Elliot. Legend has it that Muzz's grandfather hid his treasure when the great Potato Famine came to prevent it from being stolen. The sad thing is that he couldn't remember where he had hidden it. When an unexpected visitor shows up in Saskia's room leaving behind a key, the adventure truly begins in search for unanswered questions and secret treasures.

I received the book The First Escape - The Dopple Ganger Chronicles by G.P. Taylor compliments of Tyndale House Publishers. After reading the sequel some time ago, The Secret of Indigo Moon, I had to see how this story began. For fans of children's action adventures like Harry Potter and The Chronicles of Narnia, then you will fall in love with these books. They are written for young adults to keep them engaged from the first page. A combination of comic book and written words, this book makes time fly and keeps the reader completely engaged in the story.

My kids both 17 and 12 loved this book and have to say its unlike an book either of them have ever read. I would rate this book a 5 out of 5 stars. So if you are looking for a book for children 8 and up, this one is a perfect place to start!

Product Review Policy

I am an Christian independent book/product reviewer who will be more than happy to review any products or books for you as long as they are faith, family or Christian based. I've been reviewing books, DVD's CD's, and products for almost 6 years now and enjoy the opportunity to provide quality honest reviews for my readers.

I love all genres of books and have refused to pick just specific categories as I have found that I would have missed out on some great products by doing that. The only books I won't review are books outside the Christian market, for my own personal religious beliefs.

I would also be more than happy to post the review on one consumer site such as Barnes and Noble, Amazon, Christianbooks.com, etc. I am not paid for my reviews and receive the products compliments of the companies that wish me to review their products. This is disclosed within the review.

If you would like to have me review your products or books, please contact me via my email address in my profile.

My rating system is as follows with every novel beginning with 5 stars, deductions of a full star with each category

- 1 Contains sexually explicit content or descriptions.

-1 Contains profanity.

-1 labeled as a Christian novel and clearly isn't.

-1 contains witchcraft, sorcery, or new age content. This does not apply to spiritual warfare novels from a Christian perspective.

-1 Content is poor-written or has so many characters the reader is helplessly lost or ideas that confuse the reader to the point they simply want to throw the book away.

-In accordance with the new FTC Guidelines for blogging and endorsements, you should assume that every book reviewed here at Reviews From The Heart was provided to the reviewer by the publisher, media group or the author for free andments were received, unless specified otherwise.
